I have to export multiple quark xpress document in eps format automatically but every
time a document is exported a dialog box saying that there are some disk file for picture
that are missing open and I have to click “ok” each time. Is there a way to bypass this
dialog box or is there a way to answer “ok” automatically?

thanx in advance!

Search for “Okey Dokey Pro 2.0” at versiontracker.com it’s a freeware that will dismiss dialogs automatically.

This works for me even if the placed images are missing. I do get the missing picture dialog if manually saved but if I use this script the files are saved without interruption.

set page_one to "Mac HD:Desktop Folder:pageOne.eps"
set page_two to "Mac HD:Desktop Folder:pageTwo.eps"

tell application "QuarkXPress™"
	tell document 1
		save page 1 in (page_one) as "EPSF" EPS format Mac color EPS data binary EPS OPI include images with include preview
		save page 2 in (page_two) as "EPSF" EPS format Mac color EPS data binary EPS OPI include images with include preview
	end tell
end tell

Hope this helps.

Didn’t work for me. The dialog always open.
I tried “Okey Dokey Pro 2.0” and it work fine.
Thank you very much
